Question: What are the capbilities of "evaluate expression" in the "set variable" ...

[NewsArchive]

Hi Friedrich,

what are the capbilities of "evaluate expression" in the "set variable"
script item?

Can I do bitwise operations like

1 && 12 && 4

In this case, I would expect 13 as result.

Thanks for your answer.

That was the original idea of this function in Version 5 (some years back).
But we never enhanced that function to programmatically evaluate expression
strings such as ( ( 3 + 5 ) / 2 ) > 4

We have renamed the operation to "Arithmetic Operation" now.

Ok. How would you do bitwise OR with SB?

I have an idea, but it seems to be to complicated.

Bitwise OR added to the "Set Variable" function.
